Ferron is looking for a co-maintainer

Published on: Author: Dorian Niemiec

I’m looking for a co-maintainer for the ferronweb/ferron project on GitHub.

Ferron is currently maintained by a single volunteer (Dorian Niemiec). As the project grows (and becomes critical infrastructure), having a co-maintainer is essential, without one, the project would stall if I become unavailable. A co-maintainer ensures the project stays resilient, with security patches and correctness updates reaching users, even if I’m becoming unavailable.

What we’re looking for:

  • Comfortable reading and contributing to Rust code
  • Familiarity with web infrastructure, and common web server software
  • Bonus: prior contributions to Ferron

No prior maintenance experience is required; I’m happy to onboard someone who’s passionate about the project.

If you’re interested, reach out to the Ferron project team via email: hello@ferron.sh. Even just a quick message to say hello is a great way to start.
